owl Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 http://quizfarm.com/test.php?q_id=56755 I found this in one of my usual RSS feed readings. It doesn't take long and was fairly interesting. I was a tie between "A Classic Novel" and a goddam "Coloring Book," but I found the results to actually be pretty accurate. Here's what mine said: Children love you- and so do many adults. They find you approachable, simple and friendly, all of which perfectly describe you. Instead of throwing big words around, you communicate in the international language of pictures. In order to be as open as possible, you present yourself simply, allowing those around you to customize you to their liking. Sometimes this results in you turning into a primitive masterpiece, and other times you resemble a schizophrenic's daydream. So long as the one talking to you understands you, you're happy. Zen and the art of crayon-sharpening. What do YOU think? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I didn't take the quiz because I'd be upset if my result was anything other than "Philip K. Dick". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

owl Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 It means look out, is all. My guess is for falling objects, like anvils or pianos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jenbobblehead Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 You scored as Poetry. Ever since you started talking, people have been mispronouncing your name. They can't quite get the hang of your herky-jerky nature, always stuttering and wincing. It's not that you're ugly; you are frequently considered quite beautiful if occasionally pretentious and overblown. Despite all these setbacks, you are a very, very popular person. People like to share you with their friends, knowing full well that neither they nor their friends understand you--but they remain confident that the gesture was both genuine and complementary. We know better, but we can also rhyme 'effulgent'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I answered truthfully (I think), but this is mostly bullshit: You scored as A classic novel. Almost everyone showers praise upon you for your depth and enduring relevance. According to your acolytes, everything you say is timeless, erudite and meaningful. Of course, none of them actually listen to you. Nobody listens to you at all, but it's fashionable to claim you as a friend. Fond of obscure words, antiquated notions and libraries, you never have a problem finding someone to hang out with. The fact that they end up using you to balance their kitchen tables is an unfortunate side effect, but you're used to being used for others' benefit. Oh the burden of being Great.

Atticus Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I think it is interesting that there are five potential answers to the following "question": "You know what the word 'effulgent' means and can use it in a sentence." My results (which bear almost no resemblance to my view of myself): You scored as Poetry. Ever since you started talking, people have been mispronouncing your name. They can't quite get the hang of your herky-jerky nature, always stuttering and wincing.

owl Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 "Neil" doesn't seem that too tough to pronounce. Is your last name Kozlzczykski? And that's a good point about "effulgent." I just clicked "no," so I didn't worry about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I scored "A Classic Novel." It didn't tell me which one, though. I'm thinking Moby Dick.I actually thought the quiz was going to tell me which author my responses resembled. I was holding out for Rimbaud. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 No fucking shit? My Little Pony MadlibSerial killers love you- and so do many vacuum cleaners. They find you approachable, crunchy and ubiquitous, all of which perfectly describe you. Instead of throwing big spleens around, you drink in the international gonad of oranges. In order to be as steamy as possible, you ferment yourself simply, allowing those around you to urinate you to their liking. Sometimes this results in you stamping into a holy dumptruck, and other times you resemble a basketball player's pillowcase. So long as the one farting to you levitates you, you're lugubrious.
